Scholarships

Note: If you are a student looking for information regarding the scholarship application
process, please visit the Financial Aid website.

Charitable gifts to Cuesta College can establish a scholarship, or create an endowed
fund in honor of or in memory of a loved one.

Gifts can help with specific capital needs, or support one or more of the excellent
educational programs or services such as the disabled student program, sciences, humanities,
re-entry program, technology needs, business education, vocational/occupational programs,
athletics, fine and performing arts, and so many more. These gifts provide opportunity
for students struggling to finish school while navigating through day-to-day challenges.
Donors can be the difference between success and failure, hope and despair.

Endowments are another source for providing stable funding streams helping to ensure
that Cuesta College has outstanding students, quality faculty, and exceptional programs
and facilities. Endowments often provide the only predictable funding base that ensures
that our goals and priorities are achievable.

Your gift, whatever form it takes, will be wisely invested and valued by all those
you touch with your generosity.

The Cuesta College Promise is a scholarship program that started in 2013. Qualified San Luis Obispo County high
school graduates will have their first and second semester fees paid.
